President of Russia Vladimir Poutine said that the presence of foreign players in Russian teams is necessary, but everything is good in moderation.
On Thursday, Putin held a working meeting with Andrey Klychkov, governor of the Orel region. The head of the region said that a base for mass sports has been created in the region and a transition has been made to the development of a professional, while in the local team “all players will be Oryol, there will be no legionnaires.”
– As well. Legionnaires aren’t bad either, but everything is good in moderation,” Putin told the Kremlin website.
The 13+12 limit was introduced in the Premier League in the 2022/23 season. It assumes the presence in the application of the RPL club of no more than 13 foreign players and at least 12 players with a Russian passport. At the same time, no more than eight foreign players can enter the field at the same time.
